How does it Work?

Xepar 30mg contains the active ingredient Paroxetine. Paroxetine is a type of medication known as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). It works by increasing the levels of serotonin in the brain. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter. It plays a key role in regulating mood, emotions, and behaviour. Paroxetine blocks the reabsorption of serotonin by certain nerve cells in the brain. This keeps more serotonin in the brain, helping nerve cells communicate better and regulate mood. By increasing serotonin levels, paroxetine can alleviate symptoms of

Depression
anxiety disorders
obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD)
post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

other conditions where serotonin imbalance is thought to play a role. However, the exact mechanism of action of paroxetine and other SSRIs is not fully understood. Still, their effectiveness in treating various mood and anxiety disorders is well-documented through clinical research and practice.
